The Billiard certainly is
the archetype and most prevalent of all pipe shapes due to its suitability
for extended smoking.
The one offered here has other
additional features that make it an unique and high collectible opportunity.
First, the sterling lip offered
by Dunhill on custom order, very rarely found, gives good protection from
possible tooth marks; second, this protection also gives a valid counterweight
to balancing the bowl; third, the beautiful warm Tanshell colour has been
already achieved and, fourth, the pipe is still mint despite its 40 years
of age.
